Ivory Taper Candles

$9.66 ~~$14~~ In stock

Each hand dipped taper candle is dipped over 20 times by a dedicated craftsperson at Mole Hollow Candles, using a technique that has been in place since their founding in 1969. This technique, combined with their proprietary blend of waxes, is what creates the unique Spun Finish - a distinct linen-like visual texture - on each taper.

Each standard size taper candle is dripless and smokeless when burned under normal conditions. ⅞" diameter tapers should fit any standard sized candleholder. If you need a little extra security, try our sticky wax.

I’ve burned a lot of candles, but these taper candles have that rare hand-finished look—you can see the slight variation in the wax from those 20 dips, and they burn slow and even. The ivory color is soft and clean, and they’ve made our dinner table feel a bit more special every night this week.

These burn so clean and evenly, and you can really tell they’re hand dipped from the smooth, layered finish. I’ve been lighting one each evening and it’s held its shape perfectly without any dripping.

The dipping process gives them a nice, textural look, but one candle arrived slightly bent, so they don't all stand perfectly straight. They burn cleanly enough, though the flame flickers a bit more than I'd like.
